The last day or so my tire has been bulging on it’s sidewall. I removed the tire and realized that the innermost fiber belt was splitting. I used the plastic from a soda bottle and duct tape to relieve the pressure on the spilt. The repair worked but I was still concerned that the next bike shop is in Fairbanks. During my ride I met Ernst from Switzerland, who graciously offered me an extra spare he was carrying. I replaced the tire and all was good.
